–
The Under 19 Bundesliga is the highest level in German Under 19 football. It was created in 2003 and is divided in three divisions with 14 teams each, the winner of each divisions and the second-placed team from the Süd/Südwest division join the play-offs for the German U19 champions. The forerunner of the Under 19 Bundesliga was the A-Jugend-Regionalliga, in the summer of 2003 the divisions North and Northeast as well as South and Southwest were merged, the division West was simply renamed. The intent was to make football more competitive. Originally, the DFB planned to organise the league in two divisions but was eventually forced to operate with three. In 2007, the German Football Association followed this example reorganised the under 17 Regionalligas in the same fashion, the clubs in each of the three divisions play a home-and-away round whereby there is no inter-league play. Every club plays therefore 26 regular season games, the bottom three teams in each division are relegated to the next level below, in turn, the best three teams from the region are promoted. The winner of each league plus the runners-up of the South/Southwest region play in the round for the German Under 19 championship. The semi-finals are played in a home-and-away format, if the two semi-final teams playing each other are level on points and goals after the second game, there will be a penalty shoot-out. No extra time will be played, in the final, which is one game only, in case of a draw after normal time, a 20-minute extra time will be played. If the game is still a draw, a penalty shoot-out will determine the winner, the three Bundesligas are not geographically balanced, North/Northeast covers a large area while West a rather small one, but in population termes, the arrangement is much more level. The league system operates as follows for the 2008–09 season, a third promoted team is determined between the winners of the Hessenliga and the Regionalliga Southwest. The league has three divisions as the tier below, these being, Verbandsliga Mittelrhein Verbandsliga Niederrhein Westfalenliga The three league champions are directly promoted. German football recognises seven levels of football, determined by age and labeled with letters. In the A level, mixed teams of male and females are not permitted while in B and C mixed teams are allowed if the parents or guardians of the children permit it, below the C level, mixed teams are generally permitted without restrictions. 1 The champions of the three divisions, The German under 19 football championship begun in 1969.

The football team plays in the Bavarian Regional League, the German fourth division. Originally part of the gymnastics and sports club TSV Hachinger, SpVgg Unterhaching was established as an independent football club on 1 January 1925 and their first promotion to a higher division came in 1931 and they went on to be promoted to the A-Klasse a year later. Unterhachings football team was only a local amateur team with no significant successes until a climb through league ranks that began in 1976 with promotion from B-Klasse to A-Klasse play. A first-place finished earned the club promotion to the Bezirksliga in 1977. Continued good play put the team into the fourth-division Landesliga Bayern-Süd in 1979 and then the Oberliga Bayern, Unterhaching finished first there in 1983 to earn an appearance in the playoff round for the Second Bundesliga, but failed to advance. They suffered a fate in 1988 when they next appeared in the promotion round. The club finally emerged from the Oberliga to play in the 2, Bundesliga in 1989, but were quickly relegated after a 20th-place finish. Promoted a second time in 1992, they were again sent down after a marginally better 18th-place result. Unterhaching next appeared in the division in 1995 after a first-place finish in the new Regionalliga Süd. With their return to the 2, Bundesliga in the 1995–96 season the club would begin a period that would see them earn their best ever results. They finished 4th that season, then slipped to 6th and 11th-place results in their two campaigns before securing promotion to the top-flight Bundesliga after a 2nd-place finish in 1999 season. Their first Bundesliga win came in just their second match of the season, while struggling in away matches, Unterhaching remained undefeated at home in nine games before losing 0,2 to their stronger neighbours, Bayern Munich. Prior to this loss, they had earned wins at home in matches against highly favoured teams like VfB Stuttgart and Borussia Dortmund and they earned their first away win in the Bundesliga by beating VfB Stuttgart 2,0 once again. On the final matchday of the season, visiting Bayer Leverkusen needed only a draw in Unterhaching to secure their first national title, things took a sinister turn for Leverkusen when Michael Ballack scored an own goal that put home side ahead in the 20th minute. Their title hopes ended when Haching midfielder Markus Oberleitner made the score 2,0 in the 72nd minute, meanwhile, Bayern Munich beat Werder Bremen 3,1 at home and were able to overtake Leverkusen on goal difference to snatch away the title. With a 10th-place result, Unterhaching finished ahead of long-established sides Borussia Dortmund and they ended the season with the leagues fifth best home record with 10 wins and 5 draws in 17 matches having lost only to Bayern Munich and 1. Breitenreiter and Rraklli scored 13 Bundesliga goals between them that season, however, the start of the 2000–01 season was a nightmare for Unterhaching as they would win only one and draw two of their first eight matches
